On the 1st day of Earth Day, my true love ...

(EDITOR'S NOTE: This is another in a series of recycling tips from the City of Covington's Neighborhood Services Department, Solid Waste & Recycling Division.)

COVINGTON, Ky. -- Just like the “12 Days of Christmas,” we think Earth Day deserves weeks of celebration.
 
So rather than just give you a single “tip” about recycling today, we compiled a list of events – some virtual, some in-person and outdoors – to build excitement for celebrating the wonder of the planet we call home (and all it provides for us in the way of fresh air, clean water, fertile ground, and beautiful scenery): 
 
To sum, our tip is this: Enjoy the beautiful Spring weather and give back to our planet through these upcoming events and subsequent action.
 
Now, because we feel inspired, let’s say “Happy Earth Day” with this quote from primatologist and anthropologist Jane Goodall:
 
“You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.”
